Introduction: Drug-related problems (DRPs) are common in clinical practice and occur at all stages of the medication process. The major factor contributing to DRPs is prescription, although patients' poor adherence to treatment is also a significant factor. This study evaluated type 2 diabetes outpatients in a hospital in Vietnam for drug-related problems (DRPs) and related variables.

Aim Of The Study: The study aimed to investigate the developmental toxicity of the ethanol extract of C.
Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Clerodendrum cyrtophyllum Turcz, a plant belonging to the Verbenaceae family, has been used in traditional medicine for the treatment of various inflammatory diseases in many Asian countries.
Aim Of The Study: The study aimed to evaluate anti-inflammatory properties of the ethanol extract from Clerodendrum cyrthophyllum Turcz leaves (EE-CC) through in vitro and in vivo models.
Material And Methods: Total phenolic and flavonoid contents in the extract were determined using colorimetric methods and HPTLC.
Numerous studies have examined the association between pharmacogenetic effects and the response to inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) in patients with asthma. In fact, several single nucleotide polymorphisms of a number of candidate genes have been identified that might influence the clinical response to ICS in children with asthma. Their direct or indirect effects depend on their role in the inflammatory process in asthma or the anti-inflammatory action of corticosteroids, respectively.

Article Synopsis
- Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FENO) serves as a key biomarker for assessing airway inflammation in children with asthma and supports diagnosis and treatment, particularly for those using inhaled corticosteroids.
- The study evaluated FENO levels in 42 Vietnamese children with uncontrolled asthma, analyzing correlations with atopic status, blood eosinophil levels, FCER2 gene mutations, and asthma control, finding significant relationships particularly with blood eosinophils and allergen sensitivity.
- After three months of treatment, FENO levels significantly decreased, indicating treatment efficacy, though a notable percentage of children still had uncontrolled asthma, highlighting the need for ongoing monitoring and management.
